Programmer gets 90% of money made with this.
I get 10%
This may sound crazy, but you got the harder job, and I respect that greatly. You may appoint a second programmer if you want. Then we can have two programmers, one artist. 45/45/10
Sure, I'm a programmer. I just don't know jackshit about online games, and stuff of that sort. I busted out my animating chops that I put in my garage last year, and have started animate some stuff. I'll get a sample of walking up here in a minute.
So here's the plan; may be altered; but here's the rough draft of the plan at least.
Or at least how I would like the game to work.
>>Starting up<<
When the user opens the game, he'll create an account. Account details: UserName, Password, Skin.
He clicks okay, he connects to the server.
>>Menu<<
The menu has:
Quickplay - Will put you into a game automatically.
Create Game - Create a game; I'll cover this later
Find Game - Shows a listing of games.
Stats - Shows your stats
>>Create Game<<
Create a CTF game! woot.
Options:
Map - Pick a map to play on
Time - 5, 10,15, 20, 30, or no limit
Caps: 1 through 20 or no limit
Weapons - Select which weapons will be available in the game
Vehicles - Select which vehicles will be available in the game
Password - Password protect the game if you feel so inclined.
Ammo - Normal, 2x, Unlimited
>>Maps<<
I have to draw some. I hope to have at least 5.
>>Weapons<<
Snyper - Draggable crosshair cursor used for aiming. its not too fast tho. it follows the mouse at a slow speed (75 DMG; upgraded 150 DMG)
ShotGun - Short range, high pain (40 DMG; upgraded 60 DMG)
Dual Pistols - Together, its like a machine gun, pew pew pew (10 DMG; upgraded 20 DMG)
Mines - The sit around, if you touch em they explode (30 DMG; upgraded 50 DMG)
Rockets - They don't home in, but they're nice to have ;) (70 SMG; upgraded 100 DMG)
Might add some; might take some away
>>Vehicles<<
Hawk - Fast, weak vehicle. Mounted machine guns, which are also weak. (100 Health)
Eleph4nt - Slow, strong, tank. Small tank, but it'll get you there. Strong rocket turret mounted on back. (400 Health)
Once again, these are not final.
>>Skins<<
Yeah, we'll allow characters to change what they look like when they first make their account. I'm not sure about this, idk.
>>Your Game<<
You made the game, so what happens. Once you press "Create" from the Create Game screen then:
You enter the game lobby. Awesome.
>>Game Lobby<<
There's a chat where you can talk with your players on the left, and you can change your team color on the right. The creator can kick other players, and everyone can invite other players. Green up.
>>Game Starts<<
Finally the game begins.
I don't have much to say here. You play a CTF. You can kill other players, set mines, etc.
There is a HUD at the bottom.
>>The HUD<<
Shows what weapons you have, how much ammo, health, and a small chat. In this chat you can communicate with teammates, and teammates only. Plan an attack :D
>>Other stuff<<
You can select a weapon by clicking on the icon on the HUD. There will be ammo pickups and health packs along the way. After 3 kills, your weapon upgrades into a more powerful weapon so you can REALLY pwn the noobs. When you die, you leave your weapons behind in a pack. Anyone can grab you pack and get your weapons. So if you die when having and upgraded weapon, and someone picks up your pack, they get the upgraded weapon. You get 100 health.
This is obviously a sidescroller, you aim with the mouse. The sniper rifle can be aimed further, and is more powerful, but you can't move when you have it. You can drag your crosshair over to the any side of the screen and the screen will scroll over to that area. So you can snipe pretty far.
